Are you reading any chapter books right now?
My toddlers liked first book in The Boxcar Children series but they were so bored with Beezus and Ramona!

@autumnlove: omg boxcar children was my faaavorite growing up!!!!!!!

We are reading the Jesus Storybook Bible, which was recommended to me here. It's a chapter book and it's actually keeping us all entertained so far. I know it's not for everyone.
-
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Lulu and the Brontosaurus and The 39-Story Treehouse, which is more like a comic book.

My 7 yr old is reading the Race the Wild series - its the 1st series he has liked!

Great list! We are reading the Fancy Nancy books which aren't really chapter books but we love them. We may do the Junie b jones next.
-
We are reading Little House on the Prairie but the kid version part of the My First Little House series. I think it's a good ease into real chapter books.

@mediagirl: oh my goodness. It's addicting! Great for vocabulary words. "Transparency is a fancy word for see through"

She's rereading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on her own. We read it to her the first time around at the beginning of the year.

DS (3 next week) like charlotte's web and also likes the magic treehouse book. He likes listening to the lion, the witch, and the wardrobe, too (I wouldn't have chosen it, but he grabbed it off the shelf and asked), but I don't think he understood it all that well.
